One of the components I teach with my Invisible Close method is how to create your all-important “Signature Talk”.
Having a persuasive and compelling talk is SO important, and will determine your success… big time. You don’t need 4, 5 or 12 different talks. One really strong talk will make all the difference. So focus in on that one talk and make sure it does the job right!
I was recently explaining to one of my coaching classes that a Signature Talk is never really finished; there is always room for improvement. For as long as I’ve been speaking, I am still writing and rewriting, constantly looking for new ways to improve my conversion rates.
In fact, whenever I give a talk, I always sit down right afterwards (even when I don’t feel like it!) to take time to review and reflect. After I’ve talked to and registered all the attendees and have that quiet space, I still look through slides or my notes again. I reflect on any of the parts that just didn’t feel quite like they flowed as well as I wanted. Then, I take notes on things that I wished I’d said but I didn’t. I also take notice of things I felt the crowd really needed to hear about a little more. This helps for me to be in tune the next round, and it makes my talk better every time.
Take a look at your Signature Talks. Think about this: What tweaks can you make to improve your conversion rates?
Hi Lisa
Have you got any other articles on signature talks? This is such a juicy and important topic!
Also – any resources on WHERE to speak? I always see you guys on the big sales circuits- how do you get on these or are there options for signature talks?
